Sex determination of AVH-1 based on proteomics and number of nuclear DNA fragments aligning to the X chromosome and the autosomes. (A) Ion chromatograms of peptide SIRPPYPSY (AMELX, 540.2796 m/z) as in22; peptide SM(ox)IRPPY (AMELY) has not been detected (or any other AMELY peptide), reflecting female status; (B) Dashed lines represent the expected ratios of X to (X + autosomal) fragments for a female and a male. Results were concordant for all fragments (blue dot) and for deaminated fragments (red dot). Vertical bars depict the 95% binomial confidence intervals.
